REGULATORY BACKGROUND (19)

The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Citizenship

14 Case 4:09-cr-00143-SOW Document 1

Filed 05/06/09 Page 14 of 90

and Immigration Services (CIS) was an agency of the United States, responsible for processing and reviewing applications for immigration benefits and employment-based visa petitions pursuant to the Immigration and Nationality Act. (20)

The United States Department of Justice (DOJ) Immigration and Naturalization

Service (INS) was an agency of the United States, responsible for processing and reviewing applications for immigration benefits and employment-based visa petitions pursuant to the Immigration and Nationality Act. In this regard, INS ceased to exist in March 2003 when it became the Citizenship and Immigration Services (hereinafter CIS), and therefore the acronyms CIS and INS are used interchangeably hereafter in this indictment. (21)

The United States Department of Labor (DOL), Employment and Training

Administration (ETA) was an agency of the United States, responsible for the processing, review, certification, and approval of Applications for Alien Employment (form ETA 750) pursuant to the Immigration and Nationality Act. (22)

The United States Department of Treasury, Internal Revenue Service (IRS) was an

agency of the United States responsible for the administration and collection of employment related and income taxes for both businesses and individuals operating within the United States. The term “payroll taxes” includes federal withholding income taxes, Social Security taxes, Medicare taxes, and federal unemployment taxes. (23)

Throughout the United States, each state had its own State Workforce Agency

(SWA) authorized by the ETA to administer a portion of the temporary work visa programs covered under the Immigration and Nationality Act. (24)

The Kansas Department of Revenue was an agency within the State government of

15 Case 4:09-cr-00143-SOW Document 1

Filed 05/06/09 Page 15 of 90

Kansas responsible for processing and reviewing applications for drivers’ licenses, and for the administration, and regulation of drivers’ licenses in the state of Kansas. Adjustment of Immigration Status by Marriage (25)

Under the immigration laws, a foreign national who was married to a United States

citizen could obtain permanent resident status in the United States, provided that the marriage had been entered into in good faith and that the United States citizen had not entered into the marriage in exchange for something of value, such as money, or for the sole purpose of enabling the foreign national to obtain permanent resident status in the United States. (26)

In order for a foreign national to obtain permanent resident status on the basis of

marriage to a United States citizen, the United States citizen spouse was required to file a “Petition for Alien Relative” (INS form I-130) on behalf of the foreign national. Consequently, the foreign national’s spouse was required to prove that he or she was in fact a United States citizen, to provide certain background information about the marriage, including the location of the marital residence, to certify that the marriage was not entered into for the purpose of evading immigration laws, that is Title 8, United States Code, §§ 1154 and 1186a, and to certify under penalty of perjury that such information was true and correct. (27)

The foreign national was required to file with CIS a completed “Application to

Register Permanent Resident or Adjust Status” (INS form I-485), and was required to sign the completed application, certifying under penalty of perjury that the information provided by the foreign national, including information about the foreign national’s spouse, was true and correct and that the foreign national was admissible to the United States pursuant to § 212(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. (28)

After filing INS forms I-130 and I-485, the foreign national and citizen spouse were

16 Case 4:09-cr-00143-SOW Document 1

Filed 05/06/09 Page 16 of 90

required to submit to an interview conducted by CIS examiners for the purpose of verifying, among other things, that the marriage was legitimate and was not entered into in order to obtain permanent resident status for the foreign national. Consequently, if the CIS examiner determined that the marriage had been entered into in exchange for something of value or for the sole purpose of enabling the foreign national to obtain permanent resident status, the foreign national’s application for permanent resident status would be denied. Thus, the issue of whether the foreign national and citizen spouse resided together was a material factor in determining whether the marriage was bona fide. H-2B Temporary Work Visa Program (29)

An H-2B visa was a nonimmigrant visa granted to citizens of other countries seeking

to work in the United States on a temporary basis. Therefore, the H-2B non-immigrant visa program permitted employers to hire foreign workers to come to the United States and perform temporary nonagricultural services or labor on a one-time, seasonal, peak-load, or intermittent basis. In this regard, the H-2B visa classification required the Secretary of Homeland Security to consult with appropriate agencies before admitting H-2B nonimmigrants. (30)

Consequently, Homeland Security regulations required the petitioning employer

to apply for a temporary labor certification from the Secretary of Labor advising the CIS as to whether qualified United States workers were available and whether the alien's employment would adversely affect the wages and working conditions of similarly employed United States workers, or a notice that such certification cannot be made, prior to filing an H-2B visa petition with CIS. (31)

In this regard, there was a 66,000 person visa restriction on the number of foreign

workers who may receive initial H-2B status during each government fiscal year with returning H2B workers (extensions) exempted from this limitation. However, employers were still required to

17 Case 4:09-cr-00143-SOW Document 1

Filed 05/06/09 Page 17 of 90

file an H-2B application with the Department of Labor for any H-2B returning (extended) workers. Accordingly, the Department of Labor reviewed and processed all H-2B applications on a first in, first out basis, regardless of whether the 66,000 visa restraint had been reached. (32)

Entities seeking to employ temporary H-2B workers must file two original

Applications for Alien Employment Certification (form ETA 750) directly with the State Workforce Agency (SWA) serving the area of intended employment. An Application for Alien Employment Certification (form ETA 750) was both an offer of employment to a foreign national by an employer, and a request from the employer to the DOL to authorize the hiring of the foreign national for the designated position. (33)

The Application for Alien Employment Certification included Part A, “Offer of

Employment,” and Part B, “Statement of Qualifications of Alien.” Among other things, an employer was required to certify on the form ETA 750 that sufficient funds were available to pay the wage or salary offered the foreign national, that the foreign national would be employed on or before the date the foreign national proposes entrance into the United States, that the wage offered was not based on commissions, bonuses, or other incentives and that the offer of employment represented permanent, full time, work. (34)

Additionally, the employer was required to provide a geographical work site location

where the alien would perform his job, and was required to sign the form ETA 750 under penalty of perjury, attesting that the information contained in the application was true and correct. (35)

Once reviewed, the SWA transmitted the complete application from the employer to

the appropriate National Processing Center. However, it was not necessary for the employer to name each temporary foreign worker it wished to employ; instead the employer could submit a request for multiple unnamed alien workers as long as each worker was to perform the same type of

18 Case 4:09-cr-00143-SOW Document 1

Filed 05/06/09 Page 18 of 90

work on the same terms and conditions, in the same occupation, in the same area(s) of intended employment during the same period of time. In this regard, certification was issued to the employer, rather than the worker, and was not transferable from employers or workers. (36)

Consequently, a temporary labor certification was valid only for the number of

aliens, the occupation, the geographical area of employment, the specific occupation and duties, and the period of time the employer specified on the Application for Alien Employment Certification, ETA Form 750. Therefore, if the temporary H-2B alien worker entered the United States to work for an employer other than the petitioning employer on the ETA 750 form, their work authorization and immigration status was rendered invalid. (37)

After the DOL certified an employer’s Application for Alien Employment, the

employer must file with CIS a separate petition commonly known as a “Petition for Nonimmigrant Worker” (form I-129), along with the certified ETA 750 and approval notice from the DOL. Accordingly, on the form I-129, the employer must certify that it will comply with the terms of the Application for Alien Employment and specify the job in which the foreign national would be employed, the address at which the work would be performed, the wage, the current number of foreign nationals employed, and the employer’s gross and net annual income. Lastly, the employer was required to sign the I-129 petition under penalty of perjury, attesting that the petition and the evidence submitted with it was true and correct. (38)

Pursuant to DOL regulations, the petitioner on the form I-129 was the only entity

allowed to employ the temporary H-2B alien workers. Thus, if the temporary H-2B alien entered the United States and worked for an employer other than the petitioner, their work authorization and immigration status was rendered invalid. (39)

The Missouri Department of Economic Development (MDED) was a state agency

The Kansas Department of Commerce (KDOC) was a state agency designated by

Defendants ASKARKHODJAEV, YUNUSOV, SHUKUROV, DOUGHERTY,

FAZILOV, SIMON, ABDOOLLAYEV, COLE, AGZAMOV, KAKHKHAROV, GIANT LABOR SOLUTIONS, LLC, CRYSTAL MANAGEMENT, INC., and FIVE STAR CLEANING, LLC, and others known and unknown to the grand jury, including ABB Maintenance, Anchor Building Services Inc., KC Janitorial Services, LLC, Laborfix International, Midwest Management, Inc., MMC Professional Cleaning, Inc., People Inc., United Management, LLC, Advantage Labor Services, LLC, and Suncoast Hospitality Inc. constitute the “Enterprise” as that term is defined in Title 18 United States Code, § 1961(4), that is, a group of individuals and legal entities associated in fact. Furthermore, the Enterprise composed an ongoing organization whose members functioned as a continuing unit for the common purpose of achieving the objective of the Enterprise, which was engaged in and its activities affected, both interstate and foreign commerce and is herein referred to as the “Criminal Enterprise” or “Enterprise” interchangeably. MANNER AND MEANS (42)

The Enterprise led by Defendant Abror participated in the operation and

management of the Enterprise, as the leader of the Enterprise and directed other members of the Enterprise in carrying out unlawful and other activities in furtherance of the conduct of the Enterprise’s affairs.

20 Case 4:09-cr-00143-SOW Document 1

Filed 05/06/09 Page 20 of 90

Forced Labor Trafficking (43)

The Enterprise was operated for the purpose of obtaining money by seeking labor

leasing contracts, recruiting foreign nationals to come or remain in the United States for employment, and obtaining and controlling foreign nationals for labor to fulfill these contracts with client hotels and other businesses in locations as described in this indictment. (44)

As part of these contracts with client hotels and other businesses, the Enterprise

promised clients to comply with all pertinent labor and immigration laws, to pay all relative employment taxes, and to carry proper insurance coverage. However, the Enterprise failed to pay the required employment taxes, failed to pay the H-2B workers for all hours worked, failed to pay the H-2B workers overtime, failed to pay their H-2B workers in a manner set forth in the terms, regulations and laws set forth by the DOL and the CIS, defrauded insurance companies in order to obtain the required insurance coverage for their employees, and employed foreign nationals that were not authorized to work in the United States. (45)

The Enterprise profited by recruiting foreign nationals from both within the United

States and abroad and created internet web sites in order to facilitate this effort. The Enterprise recruited workers in the foreign nationals’ home countries and charged the foreign nationals approximately $3,000 to $5,000 per person for what they represented as fees associated with obtaining a visa, and for the cost of transporting them into the United States and placing them in employment within the terms of the H-2B visa. The Enterprise also sought foreign nationals within the United States whose H-2B visa work authorization status was nearing expiration and collected fees from $400 to $3000 from these foreign nationals to extend their authorizations. Consequently, many of the foreign nationals took out loans, or the foreign national’s family accrued debt on their behalf, to facilitate the payment of the fees charged by the Enterprise.

21 Case 4:09-cr-00143-SOW Document 1

Filed 05/06/09 Page 21 of 90

(46)

The Enterprise petitioned for hundreds of foreign workers

through the Missouri Department of Economic Development (MDED), Kansas Department of Commerce (KDOC), DOL and CIS using false or misleading information in their applications in order to obtain certification and approval for H-2B work visa authorizations. The Enterprise would then violate the terms of the H-2B visas by placing the foreign nationals in employment with client hotels and other business outside the terms of the H-2B visas. For the foreign nationals already in the United States, the Enterprise would fraudulently change the foreign national’s sponsoring employer to one associated with the Enterprise in violation of the visa terms. Further, the Enterprise would obtain the term of stay for the visas or the visa extensions for a term less than promised to the foreign national. (47)

The Enterprise required the foreign nationals work where the Enterprise assigned

them. The Enterprise was already in violation of United States law and the H-2B visa provisions by fraudulently changing the terms of the visas and/or placing the foreign nationals in employment in violation of the H-2B visa certifications. However, to maintain the labor and availability of the foreign nationals as needed by the Enterprise, the Enterprise threatened to cancel the immigration status of foreign nationals who refused to work as directed by the Enterprise. The visas obtained by the Enterprise for the foreign nationals were the workers’ only means to remain legally within the United States. Thus, cancellation of their visas would render them illegally within the United States and without the ability to find other legal employment. The Enterprise also threatened to charge the families of the foreign nationals in their home countries a fee of $5000 if they returned to their home country illegally. (48)

The Enterprise either would refuse to allow the foreign nationals to work outside the

assigned labor from the Enterprise or, in some instances, would allow the foreign nationals to work

22 Case 4:09-cr-00143-SOW Document 1

Filed 05/06/09 Page 22 of 90

at other places of employment if the additional work would not interfere with the work assigned by the Enterprise. For a foreign national worker to be released from the assigned employment from the Enterprise altogether, they had to pay a fee of $1000 to $2500 to the Enterprise to “freelance” and receive approval. Only after a worker paid the full freelance fee and received approval from the Enterprise would the worker be allowed to leave the work assigned by the Enterprise. Otherwise, the foreign national worker had to continue to work at all times for the employer assigned by the Enterprise. (49)

The Enterprise was in violation of United States law by paying the foreign nationals

on a commission/incentive type basis rather than the prevailing hourly wage as certified to the DOL. The Enterprise paid some workers approximately $3.50 for a hotel room that they cleaned. The Enterprise profited by keeping a portion of each foreign national worker’s wage, not paying them for all hours worked, failing to pay overtime, and by fraudulently retaining all payroll taxes. (50)

The Enterprise charged the foreign nationals additional fees, including transportation

fees for driving the foreign national workers between the assigned work location and their apartments, transportation fees for driving the foreign nationals, even against their will, to other locations in the United States to work, uniform fees, miscellaneous and unexplained fees, and fees to petition for extensions on the foreign national workers’ visas. These fees were charged regardless of whether an extension on their visa was actually obtained and regardless of whether the term of the stay on the original visa was shorter than promised by the Enterprise. These fees, combined with the lack of payment for hours worked, underpayment for hours worked, and lack of work assignments, often resulted in the foreign national workers receiving a paycheck with negative earnings. The Enterprise ensured that the workers did not make enough to repay the debt they

23 Case 4:09-cr-00143-SOW Document 1

Filed 05/06/09 Page 23 of 90

accrued to obtain the visa, purchase a plane ticket home, or pay for their own living expenses while in the United States. (51)

The Enterprise further profited by requiring the foreign national workers to reside in

apartments it exclusively secured and controlled by charging exorbitant rents. The Enterprise leased various apartments of $385 to $650 per month while requiring anywhere from three to eight foreign nationals to reside in the apartment, charging each of the foreign nationals between $250 and $350 per month for that apartment’s rent. The apartments were not sex specific and usually mixed both men and women inside one apartment. The Enterprise provided minimal furniture. The foreign nationals slept on the floor, mattresses, or air mattresses. In assuring compliance with the exclusive control of these living conditions, the Enterprise often threatened to cancel the immigration status of foreign nationals who requested permission to seek alternative housing. (52)

The Enterprise further controlled the foreign national workers placed at the Kansas

City area by not allowing the foreign national workers to receive mail. The Enterprise maintained keys to the apartments and to the apartment mailboxes and forwarded the worker’s mail to the business office of the Enterprise. The Enterprise completed the social security applications for the foreign nationals or instructed foreign nationals regarding applications, and required that the social security cards be mailed directly to the GLS business office or another address chosen by the Enterprise. H-2B Visa Fraud Fraudulent Applications for Alien Employment Certification (53)

Defendant Abror used the Enterprise entities as a means to apply to DOL for Alien

Employment Certifications (forms ETA 750). Specifically, defendant Abror presented and caused

24 Case 4:09-cr-00143-SOW Document 1

Filed 05/06/09 Page 24 of 90

to be presented to DOL, false and fraudulent statements in the supporting documentation for the Applications for Alien Employment Certification. (54)

In this regard, the false and fraudulent statements included but were not limited to

the following: (a)

that the foreign nationals would work a specified number of hours per week at a specified rate of pay;

(b)

that the wage offered would not be based on commissions, bonuses, or incentives.

©

that the foreign nationals would perform specific jobs or duties;

(d)

that the foreign nationals would work for a particular company at specific geographical locations listed on the forms or in the applications;

(e)

that the Criminal Enterprise entity was able to pay the specified salary of the foreign nationals and place them to work upon arrival into the United States.

(55)

Additionally, the Enterprise provided false supporting documents to demonstrate

temporary versus full-time work requirements in support of their applications. Specifically, the Enterprise compiled charts listing false historical salary schedules and fictitious employees often pre-dating the existence of many of the petitioning companies. (56)

The entities established by defendant Abror and the Enterprise, including

KC Janitorial Services, LLC, Suncoast Hospitality, Inc., Midwest Management, Inc., and United Management, LLC, and defendants Crystal Management, Inc. and Five Star Cleaning, LLC, were used by the Enterprise as petitioning nominee employers in its effort to obtain H-2B temporary work visas, permitting the Enterprise to fraudulently inflate the need for these workers. Furthermore, these entities handled the payroll functions for the Enterprise allowing it to

25 Case 4:09-cr-00143-SOW Document 1

Filed 05/06/09 Page 25 of 90

fraudulently avoid certain liabilities with respect to the payment of taxes, insurance premiums and overtime work benefits; and as nominee entities, they allowed defendants Abror and GLS to conceal and disguise illegal proceeds generated from the racketeering activity. Illegal Employment of Aliens Not Authorized to Work in the United States. (57)

The Criminal Enterprise hired, employed, harbored, induced and transported

unauthorized aliens as part of the workforce it used to fulfill contracts with clients for housekeeping, cleaning services and other duties. In this regard, as part of this scheme, the Enterprise defrauded the alien employees, the client hotel/resorts, legitimate competitor labor leasing companies and the United States. Specifically, the Enterprise fraudulently failed to provide the employees with workers’ compensation and overtime benefits and jeopardized their immigration status by employing them in a manner contrary to the provisions of immigration law. The Enterprise defrauded the hotel/resort clients by employing unauthorized alien workers and failing to provide worker’s compensation insurance and deducting payroll taxes as promised. The Enterprise defrauded legitimate labor leasing companies by fraudulently reducing the above costs and thus stifling competition, and lastly the Enterprise defrauded the United States by causing it to issue the limited amount of H-2B visas contrary to immigration laws and regulations prescribed thereunder. (58)

In this regard, some of the aliens entered the United States illegally without

inspection, while others entered on B1/B2 visitor visas and F-1 student visas that did not authorize work in the United States. Additionally, some aliens were employed in the United States for the Enterprise under expired J-1 work visas. (59)

The enterprise also fraudulently utilized aliens on H-2B temporary work visas which

authorized them to work for a specific job in a certain geographical area within the United States.
